    D&D General Hasbro CEO Says AI Integration Has Been "A Clear Success"

    That is AI. Arguably I put my own spin on it by the prompt I use and the choices I make after, but ultimately it still is AI. When I start with my own text and have an editor review it, it is my text, whether that editor is a person or an AI

    D&D General Former Head of D&D Says Vecna: Eve of Ruin Was Not Going To Feature Obelisk Plot

    eh, it’s one location, not sure why it is not included but to me it is a minor change. The adventure still is the tour of the universe that Ray had in mind, even if a stop changed or was dropped

    D&D General Former Head of D&D Says Vecna: Eve of Ruin Was Not Going To Feature Obelisk Plot

    “I wrote the original brief for this product. It was originally supposed to be a campaign that celebrated D&D’s 50th by sending the players on a tour of all the classic settings we reintroduced for 5E—Ravenloft, Eberron, Spelljammer, DL, and, of course FR—to battle a multiversal threat.” sounds...

    We All Won – The OGL Three Years Later

    nothing to admit there, that was most of the point, enable people to create products for D&D and the network effect basically makes D&D the center of the TTRPG universe forever Finally some other publishers are releasing their stuff under an open license too, took them long enough to figure out...

    D&D General Hasbro CEO Says AI Integration Has Been "A Clear Success"

    it’s not fuzzy, if the AI creates text that you the edit, you used AI. A spellchecker is not AI

    We All Won – The OGL Three Years Later

    they are here for D&D and do not care about / know about what WotC is doing with the OGL or CC, or much of anything else business related rather than product related

    We All Won – The OGL Three Years Later

    I am in a similar boat, they never regained my ‘trust’, but I bought a few products since as I think they course-corrected fast enough. 2024 was a disappointment though and might have marked the end of my D&D journey. I certainly am more picky about what I will buy from them in the future and...

    We All Won – The OGL Three Years Later

    the goal was not for the OGL to die, but for them to get a piece of the pie from the products created under it, and supposedly to protect themselves from a bigger player like Disney using it to create their own TTRPG and dominate the market. Neither of these goals have been accomplished, if...

    sensible use he should declare that it was written with the help of AI, that is what he did after all

    D&D 5E (2024) Essential Fighter’s Handbook

    50 archetypes means 50 subclasses, that is a lot… it probably breaks too much with the concept, but I’d rather have 5 martial classes (fighter + 4 new ones…) with 10 subclasses each than 50 fighter variants, gives it some more room to breathe Is this 2024 focused or does it work with 2014 and...

    D&D's Obelisk Plotline Was Supposed to Be Resolved in Vecna: Eve of Ruin

    that ignores the part… The adventure could tell us more about Vecna, it doesn’t have to come from somewhere else

    D&D General WotC Continues D&D's Advance To Digital First Brand

    yeah, I am pretty much at the point where I will ignore their non-PDF digital offerings despite buying digital, just means I will get less from WotC and more for other TTRPGs… I am fine with getting a PDF, in many ways I prefer that, but just some pages on DDB… not so much

    D&D General WotC Continues D&D's Advance To Digital First Brand

    I was not suggesting anything, I only pointed out that you can have profit growth at the same time as a stagnant or slightly shrinking customer base. I said nothing about WotC, quite the opposite

    D&D General WotC Continues D&D's Advance To Digital First Brand

    yeah, won’t be a plurality that dislikes them, but that is a far cry from To be clear, I have no idea how the new stuff is selling compared to the old ones. I know the new core sold great, but that is to be expected as you get customers upgrading while still having about the same number of new...
